Evidentiary Search Warrants
We have a case that is based, in part, on evidence obtained from an evidentiary search warrant executed by another county's L.E. agency, in its investigation of the same defendant on a related charge. The search warrant is being challenged and the PC is one issue. It seems the PC was there but not fully articulated. We are considering a subsequent evidentiary search warrant to search the same place or thing. Contrary to old law, Art. 18.01(d), CCP, would appear to expressly authorize a subsequent section 10 search warrant, provided the warrant is issued by a judge of a district court, CA, CCA, or SC. Has anyone run into problems with subsequent search warrants, or know of any prohibitions? Thanks!
